REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
230
The rear view monitor system assists
the driver by displaying an image of the
view behind the vehicle while backing
up. The image is displayed in reverse
on the screen. This allows the image to
appear in the same manner as that of
the rear view mirror.
To display the rear view image on the
screen, the shift lever is in the “R” posi-
tion when the engine switch is in the
“ON” position.
If you move the shift lever out of the “R”
position, the screen returns to the previous
screen. Operating another function of the
navigation system will display another
screen.
The rear view monitor system is a supple-
ment device intended to assist back up.
When backing up, be sure to check behind
and all around the vehicle visually.
CAUTION
Never depend on the rear view
monitor system entirely when
backing up. Always make sure
your intended path is clear.
Use caution just as you would
when backing up any vehicle.
Never back up while looking only
at the screen. The image on the
screen is different from actual
conditions. Depicted distances
between objects and flat surfaces
will differ from actual distances. If
you back up while looking only at
the screen, you may hit a vehicle,
a person or an object. When
backing up, be sure to check
behind and all around the vehicle
visually and with mirrors before
proceeding.
Do not use the system when the
tailgate is not completely closed.
If the back of the vehicle is hit, the
position and mounting angle of the
camera may change. Be sure to
have the camera’s position and
mounting angle checked at your
Toyota dealer.
As the camera has a water proof
construction, do not detach,
disassemble or modify it. This may
cause incorrect operation.
If the temperature changes rapidly,
such as when hot water is poured
on the vehicle in cold weather, the
system may not operate normally.
If the camera lens becomes dirty, it
cannot transmit a clear image. If
water droplets, snow, or mud
adhere to the lens, rinse with water
and wipe with a soft cloth. If the
lens is extremely dirty, wash it with
a mild cleanser and rinse.
Do not allow organic solvent, car
wax, window cleaner or glass coat
to adhere to the camera. If this
happens, wipe it off as soon as
possible.
Use your own eyes to confirm the
vehicle’s surroundings, as the
displayed image may become faint
or dark, and moving images will be
distorted, or not entirely visible
when the outside temperature is
low. When backing up, be sure to
check behind and all around the
vehicle visually and with mirror
before proceeding.
Do not use the system in the
following cases:
On icy or slick road surfaces, or
in snow.
On roads that are not flat or
straight, such as curves or
slopes.
When using tire chains or emer-
gency tires.

APPENDIX
308
This navigation system calculates the
current vehicle position using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, the accurate posi-
tion may not be shown depending on
the satellite condition, road configura-
tion, vehicle condition or other circum-
stances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) de-
veloped and operated by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Defense provides an accurate cur-
rent vehicle position, normally using 4 or
more satellites, and in some case 3 satel-
lites. The GPS system has a certain level
of inaccuracy. While the navigation sys-
tem will compensate for this most of the
time, occasional positioning errors of up to
300 feet (100 m) can and should be expec-
ted. Generally, position errors will be cor-
rected within a few seconds.
When your vehicle is receiving signals
from the satellites, the “GPS” mark ap-
pears at the top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle
position on the map display. Tunnels, tall
buildings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may ob-
struct the GPS signals.
The GPS satellites may not send signals
due to repairs or improvements being
made to them.
Even when the navigation system is re-
ceiving clear GPS signals, the vehicle
position may not be shown accurately or
inappropriate route guidance may occur in
some cases.
NOTICE
The installation of window tinting
may obstruct the GPS signals. Most
window tinting contains some metal-
lic content that will interfere with GPS
signal reception of the antenna in the
instrument panel. We advise against
the use of window tinting on vehicles
equipped with navigation systems.

play a route returning to the destination
on the previous route.
When turning at an intersection for
which there is no route guidance.
When passing through an intersection
for which there is no route guidance.
During auto reroute, the route guid-
ance may not be available for the next
turn to the right or left.
It may take a long time to operate auto
reroute during high speed driving. In
auto reroute, a detour route may be
shown.
After auto reroute, the route may not be
changed.
An unnecessary U −turn may be shown
or announced.
A location may have multiple names
and the system will announce one or
more.
